Jazz musicians will perform at a festival overlooking Rutland Water.
Rutland-based singer Natalia Douglas is hosting the event to celebrate the gypsy jazz music of Django Reinhardt.
She says the jazz and swing guitarist is deemed by many as the best guitar player to have ever lived.
Natalia will perform at the event with her partner Matthew Kerry and his brother Jonny.
She said: “We’ve always wanted to pay tribute to this style of music. We’re passionate about it and want to share that with our local community.
“It’s a contagious style that really gets your toes tapping. There will be something for everyone.”
The festival is called Django in the Bay and takes place from Friday, May 26 until Sunday, May 28. The venue overlooks Rutland Water but the exact location will only be revealed once tickets are purchased.
Professional musicians will take part in small jamming sessions during the day with stage performances every evening.
Tickets are available from www.eventbrite.com/e/510648382057 priced from £22.50. Tickets are available for individual evenings or as a weekend camping package.
